My rotors are not fitting over the new ebrake shoes. Everything looks good, I am quite sure they are installed properly.

I got the ebrake shoes from napa. They only carry the shoes and you are supposed to re-use the old springs, clips and adjuster. Napa does not sell an adjuster. And I have not been able to find one, only the adjuster for the ST's drum brakes. I doubt its the same but not sure.

Did you compare them next to the OEM ones? E-brake shoes don't have a lot of pad material because they're only used for holding your car in place (in theory... some people like to use them to powerslide) or in an emergency (hence e-brake). Those look a bit meaty to me. Also, Advance Auto Parts or Auto Zone should sell a complete hardware kit with adjusters for this. Advance Auto Parts gets them from Autopart International. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles.
